Les paroles

1. C’MON

We could go on
Wonderin'
If it's gonna turn out like we planned it would
When we were young
And all we knew
Was what the hell it meant to live for the moment

Man one time it goes by so fast

C'mon hey c'mon
Let's stop messin' around
It's all about tonight
It's all about right here and right now
C'mon hey c'mon
We gotta make this one count
It's all about tonight
It's all about right here and right now c'mon

We sit around
And laught about
The way we used to talk when we could dream out loud
When we'd show em all
And prove them wrong
Believing every word in all our favorite songs

What the hell is so different now

C'mon hey c'mon
Let's stop messin' around
It's all about tonight
It's all about right here and right now
C'mon hey c'mon
We gotta make this one count
It's all about tonight
It's all about right here and right now c'mon

Tomorrow's not for sure
So what are we waiting for


2. YOU TONIGHT

take another look, do you like what you see?
i've been standing here, watching you, watching me
we could skip the get to know you tell me everything
i don't even need to know the truth

'cause all i wanna do is take a chance on you

the party ain't over but it's time to go
let's slip out the back and i'll drive you home
we'll lock up the bedroom and leave on the lights
i want you to see everything, when i ... you tonight

take another step a little closer to the edge
i'll be waiting there, just hanging on by a thread
you don't even need to say another word, it's understood
turn around again, i love the view

and all i wanna do, is put my hands on you

the party ain't over but it's time to go
let's slip out the back and i'll drive you home
we'll lock up the bedroom and leave on the lights
i want you to scream out my name, when i ... you tonight

i've been standing here, watching you
and all i wanna do, is put my hands on you

the party ain't over but it's time to go
let's slip out the back and i'll drive you home
we'll lock up the bedroom and leave on the lights
i want you to see everything, when i ... you tonight

the party ain't over but it's time to go
let's slip out the back and i'll drive you home
we'll lock up the bedroom and leave on the lights
i want you to see everything,
and i want you to scream out my name,
and i don't want you missing a thing when i ... you tonight


3. SAME SHIT, DIFFERENT DRINK

Hey
Hey hey hey hey

Vodka tonic, my car is in the front yard
I think I've been here before
Tire tracks across my reputation
How they got there I'm not sure

Hey tequila, so good to see you
Till we till we lit up the bar
Senorita, not that I don't need ya
You just push me way to far
Way to far
Way to far

1 2 3 more shots with my friends
Try to say no but here we go again
4 5 sick of being sick about you
I think another rounds way overdue

Ask me how it's going and I'll tell you what I think
Same shit, different drink
Same shit, different drink

It wasn't pretty, but here's a little ditty
About jack and diet
We shoulda known we were flirtin with disaster
But we had to try it

As if sex on the beach with that red headed slut at the mandalay bay weren't enough
We got washington apples and little white chapels abd tattoos of who knows what

And then we wake up

1 2 3 more shots with my friends
Try to say no but here we go again
4 5 sick of being sick about you
I think another rounds way overdue

Ask me how it's going and I'll tell you what I think
Same shit, different drink
Same shit, different drink
Same shit, different drink
Same shit, different drink
Same shit hey!
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

1 2 3 more shots with my friends
Try to say no but here we go again
4 5 sick of being sick about you
I think another rounds way overdue

Ask me how it's going and I'll tell you what I think
Same shit, different drink
Same shit, different drink


4. MISS YOU GONE

I told you not to call me
Your voice, it won’t control me
I tried to drink you away
You’re always hanging me over.
I knew you tried to find me
I really wasn’t hiding
You’ve got my back to the wall
You whispered over my shoulder
“I know what you like”

I love it when you’re leaving
I can hear you screaming
Something must be wrong,
‘Cause I miss you gone.
Yeah, I love the goodbyes
Right before the sunrise
Knew it all along, and now that you’re here
I miss you gone.

We probably shouldn’t do this
We’ve got the scars to prove it
I see the look in your eyes,
You know that I can’t refuse it.
You’ve got a one track mind
You’ve got me losing mine
You follow me to my car
You told me over and over
“I know what you like”

I love it when you’re leaving,
I can hear you screaming
Something must be wrong,
‘Cause I miss you gone.
Yeah, I love the goodbyes
Right before the sunrise
Knew it all along, and now that you’re here
I miss you gone.

I know what you like.

I love it when you’re leaving,
I can hear you screaming
Something must be wrong,
‘Cause I miss you gone.
Yeah, I love the goodbyes
Right before the sunrise
Knew it all along, and now that you’re here
I miss you gone.

Something must be wrong,
‘Cause I miss you gone, I miss you gone
Knew it all along and now that you’re here
I miss you gone.


5. THE BROKEN

Getting used to the view from the bottom
Kicked in the balls, but man, we still got them
People on top, don’t stop to see the problem
We all fall down.
Pierced and tattooed, we’ve been tested,
We’re not the ones you wanna mess with
Rolling deep and going double fisted
This is our town.

Yeah, yeah,
The girls are screaming
Yeah, yeah,
And if we go down, we’re going down swinging.

Oooo,
Show us what you’re made of
Let’s go
Nothing we’re afraid of
Scarred up, shattered to pieces,
Don’t mistake this as a weakness.
Stronger
Every time we suffer
We find strength in numbers
You can’t take our hope and
You can’t break the broken.

Try to knock us down and we'll get back up
Pour another round and raise your glass up
Here’s to the ones that never get the best of
Who’s laughing now?

Yeah, yeah
The kids are alright
Yeah, yeah
The when we go out we’re gonna go all night.

Oooo,
Show us what you’re made of
Let’s go
Nothing we’re afraid of
Scarred up, shattered to pieces,
Don’t mistake this as a weakness.
Stronger
Every time we suffer
We find strength in numbers
You can’t take our hope and
You can’t break the broken.

We’re battered and bruised, with nothing to lose
But we’ve got so much left to prove.
Tattered and torn, but we’re not alone.

Oooo,
Show us what you’re made of
Let’s go
Nothing we’re afraid of
Scarred up, shattered to pieces,
Don’t mistake this as a weakness.
Stronger
Every time we suffer
We find strength in numbers
You can’t take our hope and
You can’t break the broken. [x2]


6. SHE DON’T KNOW

She's in her own little world,
Surrounded by all the
People that tell her
What I've been trying to say,
But I couldn't
And she wouldn't hear it, anyway.
She's got it all figured out
Her mind is made up, there's
Nothing to talk about

If only I knew a way to get through.
It's breaking my
Heart watching her go
But she don't know,
She don't know.
I'm falling apart,
But I won't let it show

But she don't know,
She don't know.
She's so much better than this
She knows I should be the
One that she's living with.
Fakes another smile
And puts on a coat.

It's breaking my
Heart watching her go
But she don't know,
She don't know.
I'm falling apart,
But I won't let it show
But she don't know,
She don't know.
Whatever you wanted, I wanted too
Whatever you needed, I needed you

Wherever you are, I hope it's good
I hope you're good.
It's breaking my
Heart watching her go
But she don't know,
She don't know.
I'm falling apart,
But I won't let it show
But she don't know,
She don't know.


7. NOTHING’S FREE

There she goes
Walkin' out with someone in better clothes
Must have got his hands on a redder rose
But all she sees is green
Maybe hey
He's pickin' up a tab that I wouldn't pay
Now I got my money to drink away
Next rounds on me

Don't forget your baggage when you leave.

Hey
I gave it all away
And I found out the price of being free
Yeah it cost me everything
Hey
Hey what can I say
Now I'm finally free to be myself
And she's free to go to hell
Nothing's free
Nothing but me

There she went
All the wasted time that I coulda spent
Lovin' life when I was just hating it
Man I hate that
So here I am and I got no plans
But it sure looks good
From where I stand
And all I know
Is I ain't lookin' back.

Hey
I gave it all away
And I found out the price of being free
Yeah, it cost me everything
Hey
Hey what can I say?
Now I'm finally free to be myself
And she's free to go to hell,
Nothing's free
Nothing but me

I've been goin' crazy
But crazy's goin' good
It's probably goin' better that it should

Hey
I gave it all away
And I found out the price of being free
Yeah, it cost me everything
Hey
Hey what can I say?
Now I'm finally free to be myself
And she's free to go to hell,
Nothing's free
Nothing but me


8. YOU DID IT

You got scared, so you played it rough
You didn't think I call you bluff
You're playing the game,
But I lead it up.
You made the bed, now you're lying in it
With someone else, while I pay the rent
Well, I can fix this mess you made
But I'll not help you pack all these.

I know that you did it,
It's so hard to admit it
That's why I start go down.
And now you're just playing
And I'm just saying that
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it.
You did it and now it's done.

You got lucky when you met me
But you doubled down against me
The guy that you knew and eat up your glue.
Fatal attraction, getting some action
Now all I got is an allergic reaction
I can change what you did wrong
But now you finally get your song.

I know that you did it,
It's so hard to admit it
That's why I start go down.
And now you're just playing
And I'm just saying that
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it.
You did it and now it's done.

I know that you don't believe it
But I try so hard, so hard.

You made the bed, now you're lying in it
You're lying, you're lying, you're lying, you're lying

I know that you did it,
It's so hard to admit it
That's why I start go down.
And now you're just playing
And I'm just saying that
You did it, you did it, I know that you did it
Ohh yeah, you did it, you did it, why won't you admit it?
You did it and now it's done.
You did it and now it's done.


9. PARTNER IN CRIME

She's blast, she puts her feet up on the dash
She gets off when I go too fast
Driving like you stole it, lock and load it
Go there for the kill,
She goes down, goes down like a pill
Dressed up like the Hollywood hills
The cops are knocking, she ain't talking.

My hands are tied.

She keeps me going all night,
She likes to get drunk and fight,
I kinda like doing time, 'cause she's my partner in crime.
We like a match paid in hell,
We light it up, this hotel,
They'll never take us alive, yeah, she's my partner in crime.

She's smooth, one hundred and eighty proof
She's smoking in her birthday suit
She's got a six gun tattoo pointed at you.

Put your hands up.

She keeps me going all night,
She likes to get drunk and fight,
I kinda like doing time, 'cause she's my partner in crime.
We like a match paid in hell,
We light it up, this hotel,
They'll never take us alive, yeah, she's my partner in crime.

She keeps me going all night,
She likes to get drunk and fight,
I kinda like doing time, 'cause she's my partner in crime.
We like a match paid in hell,

They'll never take us alive, yeah, she's my partner in crime.

Yeah, she's my partner in crime.


10. HERE’S TO US

There's a polaroid, one in black and white
With us against the world, burning through those summer nights.
The future in our hands, the stars lit in our eyes
We were too young, didn't know, yeah, didn't realize.
It was our time, yeah, it was our time.

So here's to us,
May we never ever change so much
We forget about how good this was.
Oooh may our lives be long,
Still remember where we all came from
Here's to life, here's to love, here's to us.
Here's to us.

I brought your old guitar, I knew you'd want to hear
The songs we used to sing out in the backyard, drinking beer.
And now it's hard to understand why you're lying in that bed
Hooked up to machines, I wish it was me instead.
Play it the last time, don't say it's the last time.

Now here's to us,
May we never ever change so much
We forget about how good this was.
Oooh may our lives be long,
Still remember where we all came from
Here's to life, here's to love, here's to us.

We never want to kind of wave the white flag
The hard times made us strong.
Yeah, we're gonna keep on keeping on.
Here's to us.

Here's to us,
May we never ever change so much
We forget about how good this was.
Oooh may our lives be long,
Still remember where we all came from
Here's to life, here's to love, here's to us.
Here's to us.
Here's to us.


11. THE WALL

A lifetime without moving
Forever, we owned it
I see it and I'm in it
If only for a minute.

I go back,
Whoo, I go back.

The songs that we sang as we lit up the night
We did it all wrong, but we do it alright
We held our time through the rise and the fall
There's more behind that picture than the wall.

The last time that we stood there,
The silence we shared
We broke the eye, we couldn't say goodbye
So we didn't even try.

The songs that we sang as we lit up the night,
We meant every word and we lived every line
The dual time in our eyes says it all.
The worlds that we loved got us back through the fight
We did it all wrong, but we do it alright
We had our time through the rise and the fall
Is more behind that picture than the wall.

I go back, oooh, I go back.

The songs that we sang as we lit up the night
We meant every word and we lived every line
The dual time in our eyes says it all.
The worlds that we loved got us back through the fight
We did it all wrong, but we do it alright
We had our time through the rise and the fall
Is more behind that picture than the wall.


12. RIGHT THIS TIME

Fell in love, felt alive,
Fell apart, even lost my mind
About a thousand times.
Can't say I didn't try,
Learn to run, never learn to fly
Couldn't get that high.

Broken hearts, lonely roads,
Where it starts no one knows, but
I'm holding on.

'cause I, I think I got it right this time
Baby, it was worth the ride
You're where I belong, how could this be wrong?
I think I got it right this time.

Take it slow or make it fast,
Either way, we're gonna make it last
And never look back.
I can see me with you and it's crazy
All the crazy things I wanna do to you.

'cause I, I think I got it right this time
Baby, it was worth the ride
You're where I belong, how could this be wrong?
I've been close before, but I
I think I got it right this time
Baby, it was worth the ride
You're where I belong, how could this be wrong?
I think I got it right this time.

Fell in love, felt alive,
Fell apart, even lost my mind
About a thousand times.

I think I got it right this time
Baby, it was worth the ride
You're where I belong, how could this be wrong?
I've been close before, but I
I think I got it right this time
Baby, it was worth the ride
You're where I belong, how could this be wrong?
I think I got it right this time.
Yeah
I think I got it right this time.
I think I got it right this time.
